My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 369: Purifying the Demon God Prison

Mu Yuyan opened her eyes and extended a jade-like finger, with an icy aura condensing at its tip.

In the next moment, the ice transformed into delicate lotus flowers, sometimes spinning, sometimes fluttering, resembling snow spirits.

On the other side of the bed, Gu Lan sipped a nourishing elixir, and seeing the changes in his wife’s hand, a hint of surprise flickered in his eyes.

The transformations of ice and snow at Mu Yuyan’s fingertips seemed simple, but they contained a trace of domain power.

Even a trace significantly enhanced her strength because domain power typically required reaching the Heaven Emperor realm to master.

That someone at the Emperor Sovereign realm could harness even a hint of domain power was impressive, underscoring the formidable heritage of the Snow Clan, one of the top seven ancient clans in the Immortal Realm.

Reflecting on this, Gu Lan felt a thread of worry. The Snow Clan’s heritage was strong, and the Bright Temple, the force of the Light Clan—another of the top seven in the Immortal Realm—was similarly formidable.

Even with the Divine Space Ring, the Merit Golden Robe for protection, and the newly acquired imperial weapons, Gu Lan felt it was not entirely secure.

Being at the Supreme Pinnacle of the Divine Realm might be powerful in the fairy and demon worlds, but in the Immortal Realm, it was likely only average.

He needed to be even stronger. Until he achieved invincibility across the Six Realms, he had to be thorough and cautious.

His wife also wanted to visit the Earthly Realm to see Simu. After the journey to the Demon Realm, they would return to the Earthly Realm for a proper rest, thoroughly fortify the hundred defenses of the Jing Nation, and then resume their travels through the Six Realms.

There were many talents from the Demon Realm awaiting him in the Earthly Realm, and he couldn’t let them down.

Thinking this, Gu Lan felt rejuvenated after drinking another cup of elixir.

Once Mu Yuyan stabilized her cultivation level, Gu Lan shared his thoughts with her.

Mu Yuyan agreed readily. Balancing work and rest was important, and she felt it was time to return to the Jing Nation to handle some governmental affairs.

Of course, the most important thing was to see their beloved daughter.

...

The next day arrived.

It was finally time for the awakening of Chiyang Saint Sovereign, and Gu Lan waited early by the demon pool.

The Empress did not come, as she was consolidating her cultivation.

The grand military review of the Demon Realm would last a long time. During this period, the Demon King of No Start would be very busy, and Gu Lan did not want to disturb others with personal matters.

The Feng Yang Emperor had already departed for the Demon Realm, and with the Demon King of No Start present, Gu Lan didn’t need to worry about it.

"Blub, blub!"

The demon pool started to bubble and churn, with hot steam rising and a vast amount of pure demon energy converging to one spot in the pool.

This was where Chiyang Saint Sovereign nurtured his body. Though his eyes were still tightly closed, his aura had already reached the pinnacle of the Saint Stage.

After four thousand years of imprisonment and absorbing the Initial Demon’s Demonic Soul, Chiyang Saint Sovereign gained the qualifications to step into the Imperial Realm. Finally, after absorbing a massive amount of demonic energy, he slowly opened his eyes.

Boom!

He burst out of the demon pool, causing the liquid within to surge. However, an invisible force controlled it, ensuring not a drop was spilled, and it all returned to the pool.

"Little friend, we finally meet face to face!"

Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s new body was identical to his previous one, resembling a middle-aged scholar. His gaze at Gu Lan was filled with gratitude. Without Gu Lan, he would likely still be imprisoned by the Initial Demon, with no chance for revenge, let alone reclaim his body, break and rebuild, and advance further.

Despite the immense favor, Chiyang Saint Sovereign did not mention repaying it after his awakening. The tacit understanding between them allowed them to immediately dive into serious topics, even on their "first meeting."

Next, Chiyang Saint Sovereign began recounting his experiences in the Demon Realm to Gu Lan, especially his heightened sensitivity to malefic energy after practicing the Initial Demon’s demonic arts.

"The final level of the Demon God Prison contains an extremely powerful entity. Based on my observations, even if it isn’t an extraterrestrial entity, it is likely a completely Evil Infection-possessed demon emperor..."

Hearing Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s account, Gu Lan nodded. Before returning to the Earthly Realm, he also planned to visit the Demon God Prison once more. He wanted to thoroughly inspect the sealing point of the extraterrestrial entities and investigate what the Bright Temple had been doing over the years.

"Little friend, I will accompany you."

"Though I dislike the malefic energy, my sensitivity can be quite useful. I might be able to help you locate that malevolent entity."

Gu Lan gladly accepted Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s proposal. They immediately set out for the Demon God Prison. This time, being familiar with the place, and recognized by the Demon Clan guards, they encountered no significant obstacles.

Previously, the Demon King of No Start and Feng Yang Emperor had inspected the sealing point without finding anything unusual. Even the seal appeared intact. Yet, Gu Lan insisted on a personal visit.

Of the eighteen levels of the Demon God Prison, Gu Lan had already eradicated the Evil-Infected Demon Clan members from the first three levels. The remaining fifteen levels had not been thoroughly cleared due to the Demon King of No Start being preoccupied with preparing for the Demon Clan’s grand review.

Reaching the entrance of the fourth level of the Demon God Prison, Gu Lan released Gu Xiaoqi. She was particularly adept at handling these Evil-Infected creatures. Moreover, dealing with these demonic entities was beneficial for Gu Xiaoqi as well, enhancing her strength, which had been rapidly increasing since entering the Immortal Realm.

Having spent considerable time in the Demon Realm, she had become many times stronger than when she had left the Earthly Realm.

Even though Gu Xiaoqi was far from adulthood, she was already capable of independently battling a peak Saint Stage cultivator without any trouble. Becoming an emperor upon reaching adulthood exemplifies the powerful bloodline of divine beasts!

The power of her Phoenix Fire had also significantly increased. Gu Xiaoqi blazed her way from the fourth level to the seventeenth level of the Demon God Prison. Except for the Evil-Infected demon emperors on each level, all other demonic creatures were utterly powerless against the Phoenix Fire.

Even those Evil-Infected demon emperors, despite being at their peak, were no match for Gu Lan. Having been imprisoned in the Demon God Prison for so many years, they were easily annihilated. Unfortunately, before these demon emperors were locked up, all their valuable possessions had been stripped away.

Unlike the Initial Demon Emperor, who at least had a bronze demon coffin, these guys were all paupers with nothing left.

"The eighteenth level of the Demon God Prison... it seems unusually quiet," Gu Lan remarked, looking around the final level, sensing something strange. In this layer, he did not sense the presence of any demon emperor’s aura! Even the demonic creatures here weren’t as powerful as those in the previous levels!

Gu Xiaoqi had already transformed into her Phoenix True Body, preparing to give the demonic creatures in this level a thorough roasting experience.

"Something’s odd..."

"It seems that the exceptionally powerful malevolent entity sensed something and left before we arrived," Chiyang Saint Sovereign said, frowning as he finely attuned his senses. From the beginning to the end, he had not detected that powerful evil aura. Even at the last level, he had not sensed anything unusual.

"Let’s check if the seal is intact," Gu Lan suggested, his gaze falling to the end of the final level, where the sealing point was located.

In a flash, they stood before a gigantic light screen. The light screen flickered, emanating golden rays filled with the aura of light. Beneath the light screen was an ink-black fissure. Within this fissure lay the seal of the legendary extraterrestrial entities. The fissure exuded black malevolent energy.

As the malevolent energy spread outward, it was immediately obliterated by the light aura upon contact. The interplay of darkness and light created a hazy, confusing scene, almost giving the illusion that they had fused into one...

"The seal appears to be intact..."
